Why did the chicken cross the road? To get to the other side. Most people know this joke. But recently, some people have been much more concerned with how the grizzly bear and mountain lion can cross the road. Millions of animals die each year on U. S. roads, the Federal Highway Administration reports. In fact, only about 80 ocelots, an endangered wild cat, exist in the U. S. today. The main reason? Roadkill. "Ecopassages" may help animals cross the road without being hit by cars. They are paths both over and under roads. "These ecopassages can be extremely useful, so that wildlife can escape being killed," said Jodi Hilty of the Wildlife Conservation Society. But do animals actually use the ecopassages? The answer is yes. Paul Beier of Northern Arizona University found foot marks left by mountain lions on an ecopassage that went under a highway. This showed that the lion used the passage. Builders of some ecopassages try to make them look like a natural part of an area by planting trees on and around them. Animals seem to be catching on. Animals such as grizzly bears are using the bridges and underpasses. The next time you visit a park or drive through an area with a lot of wildlife, look around. You might see an animal overpass (天桥)! 66. The writer uses the example of “ocelots” to show that ______. A. wild animals have become more dangerous B. the driving conditions have improved greatly C. the measure for protecting wildlife fails to work D. an increasing number of animals are killed in road accidents 67. From the news story, we know an ecopassage is _______. A. an underground path for cars B. a fence built for the safety of the area C. a bridge for animals to get over a river D. a pass for animals to cross the road 68. When the writer says that animals seem “to be catching on”, he means _______. A. animals begin to realize the dangers on the road B. animals begin to learn to use ecopassages C. animals are crossing the road in groups D. animals are increasing in number 69. The writer asks visitors and drivers to look around when traveling because_________. A. wild animals may attack cars B. wild animals may jam the road C. they may see wild animals in the park D. they may see wild animals on ecopassages B Compassion is a desire within us to help others. With effort, we can translate compassion into actions. An experience last weekend showed me this is true. I work part-time in a supermarket across from a building for the elderly. These old people are our main customers, and it’s not hard to lose patience over their slowness. But last Sunday, one aged gentleman appeared to teach me a valuable lesson. This untidy and shabby (寒酸的) man walked up to my register（收款机）with a box of biscuits. He said he was out of cash, had just moved into his room, and had nothing in his cupboards. He asked if we could let him have the food on trust. He promised to repay me the next day. I couldn’t help staring at him. I wondered what kind of person he had been ten or twenty years before, and what he would be like if luck had gone his way. I had a hurt in my heart for this

kind of human soul, all alone in the world. I told him that I was sorry, but store rules didn’t allow me to do so. I felt stupid and unkind saying this, but I valued my job. Just then, another man, standing behind the first, spoke up. If anything, he looked more pitiable. “Charge it to me, ” was all he said. What I had been feeling was pity. Pity is soft and safe and easy. Compassion, on the other hand, is caring in action. I thanked the second man but told him that was not allowed either. Then I reached into my pocket and paid for the biscuits myself. I reached into my pocket because these two men had reached into my heart and taught me compassion. 70. The aged gentleman who wanted to buy the biscuits_________. A. promised to obey the store rules B. forgot to take any money with him C. hoped to have the food first and pay later D. could not afford anything more expensive 71. Which of the following best describes the old gentleman? A. kind and lucky B. poor and lonely C. friendly and helpful D. hurt and disappointed 72. What does the writer learn from his experience? A. Wealth is more important than anything else B. Helping others is easier said than done C. Experience is better gained through practice D. Obeying the rules means more than compassion. C Professor Barry Wellman of the University of Toronto in Canada has invented a term to describe the way many North Americans interact (互动) these days. The term is “networked individualism”. This concept is not easy to understand because the words seem to have opposite meanings. How can we be individuals (个体) and be networked at the same time? You need other people for networks. Here is what Professor Wellman means. Before the invention of the Internet and e-mail, our social networks included live interactions with relatives, neighbors, and friends. Some of the interaction was by phone, but it was still voice to voice, person to person, in real time. A recent research study by the Pew Internet and American Life Project showed that for a lot of people, electronic interaction through the computer has replaced this person-to-person interaction. However, a lot of people interviewed for the Pew study say that’s a good thing. Why? In the past, many people were worried that the Internet isolated (孤立) us and caused us to spend too much time in the imaginary world of the computer. But the Pew study discovered that the opposite is true. The Internet connects us with more real people than expected — helpful people who can give advice on careers, medical problems, raising children, and choosing a school or college. About 60 million Americans told Pew that the Internet plays an important role in helping them make major life decisions. Thanks to the computer, we are able to be alone and together with other people — at the same time! 73. The underlined phrase “networked individualism” probably means that by using computers people ________. A. stick to their own ways no matter what other people say

B. have the rights and freedom to do things of their own interest C. do things in their own ways and express opinions different from other people D. are able to keep to themselves but at the same time reach out to other people 74. According to the Pew study, what do many people rely on to make major life decisions? A. Networks. B. Friends. C. Phones. D. Parents. 75. It can be inferred from the Pew study that _______. A. people have been separated from each other by using computers B. the Internet makes people waste a lot of time and feel very lonely C. the Internet has become a tool for a new kind of social communication D. a lot of people regard the person-to-person communication as a good thing 76. Which would be the best title for this passage? A. We’re Alone on the Internet. B. We’re Communicating on the Internet. C. We’re Alone Together on the Internet. D. We’re in the Imaginary World of the Internet. 第二节 任务型阅读 （共 4 题，每题 2 分，共 8 分） 阅读下列材料，从所给的五个选项（A、B、C、D、E）中，选出符合各小题要求的最佳选 项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。选项中有一项为多余选项。 The people below are all looking for a hotel in Scotland for their holidays.
